The Operation Qualification (OQ) protocol is part of the validation documentation<\/a> that covers the verification of the proper operation of the system under validation <\/a>in the user's facility. This OQ protocol is generic, and the system may include a PC with Human\/Machine Interface (HMI<\/a>), a Programmable Logic Controller*<\/strong> (PLC<\/a>), pressure, temperature and humidity transmitters, and other monitoring and control components designed to maintain the user's facility in proper environmental conditions (temperature, pressure and humidity)<\/p>\n This OQ protocol is intended to verify that the system under validation operates according to the acceptance criteria specified in the Schedule of System Operation (SSO), and also meets the vendor's requirements and the user's specifications. It must be reviewed and approved prior to the OQ performance<\/p>\n The OQ protocol is structured in a relatively standard fashion, with predetermined chapters and sections, where the final contents are tailored according to the type and size of the system under validation<\/p>\n :<\/strong>The chapters and sections of an OQ protocol are<\/p>\n Documents Verification – procedure intended to verify that all the documents required for performing the OQ procedure are approved and available<\/p>\n OQ Test Procedures – this is the main part of the protocol, and provides the description of the test procedures and the result tables for filling and approving the test results<\/p>\n :<\/strong>\u00a0Note<\/strong><\/p>\n As the final contents of the OQ protocol are tailored according to the type and size of the system under validation, and this document is generic, it covers test procedures that may not be necessary in small or simple systems<\/strong><\/p>\n :<\/strong>This procedure is intended to verify that all the documents required for performing the OQ procedure are approved and available.
